4.1.1.6 Flags( ): 0x0a/0x0b
This read-word function returns the contents of the fuel-gauge status register, depicting the current
operating status.

OTC = Overtemperature in charge condition is detected. True when set.
OTD = Overtemperature in discharge condition is detected. True when set.
CHG_INH = Charge inhibit: unable to begin charging (temperature outside the range [Charge Inhibit Temp Low, Charge Inhibit Temp
High]). True when set.
XCHG = Charge suspend alert (temperature outside the range [Suspend Temperature Low, Suspend Temperature High]). True when
set.
FC = Full-charged condition reached. Set when charge termination condition is met. (RMFCC=1; Set FC_Set % = -1% when RMFCC = 0).
True when set
CHG = (Fast) charging allowed. True when set.
OCV_GD = Good OCV measurement taken. True when set.
WAIT_ID = Waiting to identify inserted battery. True when set.
BAT_DET = Battery detected. True when set.
SOC1 = State-of-charge threshold 1 (SOC1 Set) reached. True when set.
SysDown = SystemDown bit indicating the system shut down. True when set
DSG = Discharging detected. True when set.
4.1.1.7 NominalAvailableCapacity( ): 0x0c/0x0d
This read-only command pair returns the uncompensated (less than C/20 load) battery capacity
remaining. Units are mAh.
4.1.1.8 FullAvailableCapacity( ): 0x0e/0x0f
This read-only command pair returns the uncompensated (less than C/20 load) capacity of the battery
when fully charged. Units are mAh. FullAvailableCapacity( ) is updated at regular intervals, as specified by
the IT algorithm.
4.1.1.9 RemainingCapacity( ): 0x10/0x11
This read-only command pair returns the compensated battery capacity remaining. Units are mAh.
4.1.1.10 FullChargeCapacity( ): 0x12/13
This read-only command pair returns the compensated capacity of the battery when fully charged. Units
are mAh. FullChargeCapacity( ) is updated at regular intervals, as specified by the IT algorithm.
4.1.1.11 AverageCurrent( ): 0x14/0x15
This read-only command pair returns a signed integer value that is the average current flow through the
sense resistor. It is updated every 1 second. Units are mA.
4.1.1.12 TimeToEmpty( ): 0x16/0x17
This read-only function returns an unsigned integer value of the predicted remaining battery life at the
present rate of discharge, in minutes. A value of 65,535 indicates battery is not being discharged.
4.1.1.13 TimeToFull( ): 0x18/0x19
This read-only function returns an unsigned integer value of predicted remaining time until the battery
reaches full charge, in minutes, based upon AverageCurrent( ). The computation accounts for the taper
current time extension from the linear TTF computation based on a fixed AverageCurrent( ) rate of charge
accumulation. A value of 65,535 indicates the battery is not being charged.
